rjsanders Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 love the new pix (now i'm jonesin' on a 137DC and a 170 and a Groove Master and a ...) some "Artists" links go to Google search some copy-editing needed ("Award winning" s/b "Award-winning", "H-137" s/b "H-137DC" in one place, etc., "Millenium" [sic] misspelt everywhere) some content needed (the diffs among the various Millennium body constructions) linking Dealers info to their websites suggested (promotes inquiries, sales) love the no-longer-in-production page, they should add some more (basses, flat-tops, a few other electrics). if they wanted more biz (i don't know, tho i've heard they could use it), that might prompt the return of some models. i understand the difficulty in bringing back various acoustic models, but can you imagine a nice American-hand-made bass at a great price...and how hard could that be?... hmmm, there's more... huge improvement
rjsanders Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 really love the new pix found some more discrepancies, so will test the e-mail interface...(e.g., 137dc shows 3 controls, text describes 4) this is gonna take some time...
rjsanders Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 started a TGP thread here. hey, Andy Fuchs has chimed in already...
rjsanders Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 looks like a lotta content probs (some omissions, too), so will wait for followup chuckle point: still no phone number on the "Contacts" page
SouthpawGuy Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 I noticed the 530 is listed under "semi hollow", I thought that was fully hollow ? Also it seems that Schaller roller bridges and tailpieces have been dropped completely, (well none of the new pics show guitars fitted with them).
pegleg32 Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 started a TGP thread here. hey, Andy Fuchs has chimed in already... Hey Jeff, the TGP comments were interesting to me, shows that we aren't the only folks that appreciate Heritage.
SouthpawGuy Posted October 17, 2009 Posted October 17, 2009 There's a new index page up now, very nice indeed.
DCA Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Hot dog! They've really done a bang up job on the new site. The only suggestion that came to mind was the lack of photographs of the back of the various guitars, particularly their heels.

The only suggestion that came to mind was the lack of photographs of the back of the various guitars, particularly their heels. that was one of the things i e-mailed 'em about (looking for a response sometime early in the week) - testing the web/e-mail hookup: no bounceback yet...
shook494 Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 I really like it. I spent a lot of time looking through it. It's way better than the original site. I'll actually check it out more now.
rjsanders Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Hey Jeff, the TGP comments were interesting to me, shows that we aren't the only folks that appreciate Heritage. yeahman. i was surprised to see that "Tag", who recently bought a Dumble and has just about the most posts of anyone, started a thread on 335 vs 535 and drew quite a few H-folk (some non-HOC) have chimed in. they're out there...next time i see "Red Suede" i'm gonna quiz him on those two red guitars...(monster player & gear maven from hereabouts)
rjsanders Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 ...some copy-editing needed (..."H-137" s/b "H-137DC" in one place, etc., "Millenium" [sic] misspelt everywhere) ... someone's paying attention: these two items above appear to have been corrected already (<24 hrs & over a weekend, too)

When I click on the picture of a guitar is super sizes it and then it gives me an option to see the back.

rjsanders Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 When I click on the picture of a guitar is super sizes it and then it gives me an option to see the back. i tried several & didn't see it (137dc, 110, golden eagle). maybe it's in progress? or maybe IE-dependent code? (i'm using Firefox 3.5.3 over Mac OS X 10.5.8)

DCA Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 When I click on the picture of a guitar is super sizes it and then it gives me an option to see the back. If you're refering to the large "Back" button in the exploded view, that's a back to previous page button. I banged away at the 1 and 5 series pictures this afternoon and wasn't able to find an option for rear views. Of course I've been known to make the odd dumb mistake...

I dont understand and the translators indicate me incomprehensible things. thanks it's a man thing. happens from lifting 12-lb Les Pauls too quickly. a truss helps for a while, but eventually surgery is indicated. then you can stay home & play your 150 while recuperating

Regards. Karl yeahman. or just call it the "Millie". we do anyway. saves keystrokes. a little harder to misspell or mispronounce...
brentrocks Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 i like the new website a lot...i think it is well done!
